Abstract
A method and an apparatus for error detecting and error recovering in a processor are described. In one embodiment, a system includes at least one cache, one execution unit, and an error detecting and recovering device. The error detecting and recovering device monitors information transferred between the processor components, such as a cache and an execution unit. Once an error is identified, the error detecting and recovering device suspends processor execution. After the error is recovered, the processor execution is resumed.
